NEW CHEMICAL FOUND 70 BE FATAL TO MOTHS Cornell University Scientist Dis- eovers Compound to Kill Insects, Larvae or Bggs. ITHACA, N. Y. (#)—Sure death for clothes moths in’ any e, even the eggs, is found at Cornell Unlversity in paradichlorobenzene. This chemical is a coarse, White, crystalline substance derived from ben- zene. In air it turns into a vapor more than five times as heavy as the atmos- phere. It has an ether-like smell. Paradichlorobenzene must be used in air-tight containers. A heaping tea- spoonful in an ordinary sized trunk, perfectly sealed, exterminates all stages of moths in about 8ne week. In a re- port to the Association for the Advancement of Science, Glenn W. Herrick, professor of entomology, and Dr. Grace H. Griswold state: “The experimental evidence is rather clear that the fumes of paradichloro- benzene are toxic to the eggs, the lar- vae and the pupae of clothes moths, It is also evident that infested clothing stored in tight boxes, trunks, closets and even in paper bags of the right type may be surely protected by the use of paradichlorobengene. eAssessors Inva(ie Wilds.

Omo- | Organized Reserves ‘The idea of creating a Reserve divi- sion in the War Department was re- vived last month in the form of one of the resolutions adopted at the anm | convention of the Reserve Officers’ As: soclation, held in New Orleans. After setting forth the peculiar status of the Regerve officer in the scheme of na- [tional defense and his desire to meet his obligations in such way that he will | be an asset to the Nation, the resolu- |tion voices the opinion that there is a | definite need for the establishment of a centralized agency, functioning directly under the supervision of the chief of staff of the Army, to give careful con- sideration to the particular problems confronting the Reserve officer in his civilian status. It is proposed that a Reserve division be created in the War Department General Staff, with an offi- cer of the Regular Army with the rank of brigadier general or colonel at its head, to be designated as an assistant chief of staff and rank along with the other assistants. Legislation is neces- sary to provide for such a division in the.War Department, and-Tt would oc- casion no surprise if the proposal to '|create a separate Reserve division in the War Department would be pre- sented during the next scssion of Con- e85, Col. Charles D. Herron is in_chary of Reserve affairs in the War Deplr‘l: ment. Col. Herron's office supervises the affairs of the Officers' Reserve Corps, the funetions of organization, training, supply, etc., being handled by the various divisions of the General Staff to which they pertain. All District Reserve officers now en- rolled in the various subcourses of the Army Extension School were urged by 3d Corps Area headquarters last week 30. In view of the fact that the 1931-32 lesson and text material is being re- ceived at the corps area school from the War Department, the about July 1, 1931. The majority of | the new lessons will be in the hands of the branch schools for distribution to all Reserve officers enrolled by August 15, 1881. All lesson material for the Army E: tensicn Schaols for 1931-32 will be new, and the present syst'm of nomencla- ture and identification of courses and subcourses will be superseded by a to- |tally different system. The courses have been co-ordinated with the 140 series of Army regulations. Certain sub- courses are required for appointment in the Reserve Corps and certain other subcourses are required for promotion to the several grades. In order that the transition from the use of lesson ma- terial to the use of 1932 lesson mate- rial may be accomplished without diffi- culty, the enrollment of all students will be automatically canceled, effective July 1, 1931. In accordance with War Department instructions, no lesson ma- terial of any edition prior to 1931-32 will be furnished students after that date. Members of the 428th Infantry (col- ored) will meet at the Washington Re- serve headquarters, at 1734 New York avenue, tomorrow evening for their in- structional conference, which will be conducted by Maj.
